Suggest Remedy For Severe Hair Fall Post A Bout Of Parathyroid

I am 18 years old. I suffered from paratyphoid in the month of February. It lasted for about 20-22 days. I was on high dose of antibiotics then for about a month I continued with vitamin tablets. My hairfall problem has become very serious. It is a matter of concern for me as I am only 18 and my hair is thinning at a great pace.

Hi,
Kindly donot worry about the hairfall. hair follicle growth has many phases - anagen(active growth), catagen ( transitional phase), telogen (resting stage). Hence, during severe illness/stress hair follicle undergoes the resting phase.
However within 3 months , on recovery, the hair follicle growth again occurs.
Dont worry take a nutritious diet rich in vitamins and proteins. take vitamin supplements also like tablet biotin once a day for 3 months. Everything will be fine.
Regards
Dr.Riyanka
